Ah, good to know.

Shall we really drop it? My attempt is to trim down the footprint of gnome-core (and maybe gnome) a bit. If we keep gnome-screenshot as a dependency, we should at least move it to the full-blown gnome metapackage and make it a Recommends or Suggests only, I think. I have to admit, that I haven't used gnome-screenshot in a very long time.
